Gong Yoo Hopes The Set Atmosphere For His New Drama Is Just Like “Coffee Prince”

On September 5, it was revealed that tvN’s upcoming Friday-Saturday drama called “Goblin” (tentative title) will start filming this Thursday, September 8. The drama, set to air sometime in December, is a fantasy romantic comedy that is bringing back the writer-PD duo of Kim Eun Sook and Lee Eung Bok, who both worked on “Descendants of the Sun.”

After the table reading for the drama, Gong Yoo mentioned “Coffee Prince,” in which he starred with Yoon Eun Hye, and said, “It’s already been 10 years. I’m not sure if you will believe me or not, but the drama will have meant as much to me whether or not it did well.”

He continued, “Everyone in ‘Coffee Prince’ wanted each other to do well. No one was selfish, and it was a set where we all had fun. That kind of atmosphere is hard to come by, and to have experienced it as an actor, I am very thankful. I hope [the ‘Goblin’ set] is the same.”
